Bath And Body Works | Winter Collection

 I have an issue, and the issue is I can't stop buying Bath & Body Works candles, these two make my collection 5 strong now. I'm probably going to get more at another time, all 5 of my candles are autumnal scents - one is even a lovely Halloween one (you can see my other candle haul here).

The two candles I bought are Hot Cocoa & Cream and Campfire Donuts. The candles are both 3 wick and have the same sort of rustic looking label on the glass jars. They also feature the same metal lids with the forest and stars design on them! These scents are definitely not for everyone as only my brother and Davids Auntie like the smell of them - they are very strong and if you're not a fan of sweet cakey type scents then I'd probably steer clear of these ones. 
Hot Cocoa & Cream smells just like a super rich hot chocolate - smells insane and honestly it smells good enough to eat. It is definitely the stronger of the two scents. Campfire Donuts smells amazing too - it isn't nearly a strong a scent as Hot Cocoa & Cream though. 
It smells cakey and sweet, just like a warm donut would smell. 
Both these candles are literally drool worthy!! 

What do you think about these two candles? Would they be scents that you'd want?

November Goals

Hello! Autumn is most definitely upon us and I achieved one of my goals last month... I blogged regularly! Woohoo go me!! 

I did not however sort my money issues out - reduced my credit card debt by a small amount but nothing huge. So this shall be an on going goal that I’ll not talk too much about until I manage to fix it. 

I also didn’t manage to get any of my autumn wardrobe sorted. I’ve worked near enough every day since my October Goals Post and my lack of money has given me no chance to get new clothes. Some new jumpers and a new pair of jeans though are definitely needed.
Lets talk November Goals though! 

Get Christmas Wrapped Up

Puns aside, I really want to have all my Christmas presents bought by the end of the month. David and I are buying joint presents for all the people in our families, we already know what we are getting his gran, mum and dad - just need to figure out what were getting for my gran, mum, her partner, my brother and Davids nephew (hes the most adorable wee boy ever). 
So still have lots of people to buy for - but we're thinking that a Stobo gift voucher for my mum and her partner could be a great idea. 

Improve the weight I'm lifting for every body part

So the weight I'm able to lift has been going up ever so slightly, but I'd like for at least one exercise for each body part to increase in weight by maybe about 10kg (?) by the end of the month. So for example, I chest press (both incline and flat) 10kg currently so it would be good to manage nearer the 20 mark by the end of the month. 

I'm going to pick exercises I want to increase on to make this easier: chest press, shoulder press, cable tricep pull downs and leg press. 

Keep on going with the blog

I love my blog, I'm excited to keep going with it and see where it'll take me over the next few months! 

What goals do you have for this month? 

October | 5 things

October went by in a blur, I worked more or less every day of the month - so I’m feeling so very tired, also though looking towards payday to treat myself to new things! Woop woop! 

Of my goals that I set at the start of the month I think I maybe only achieved one of them - boo! But in fairness I think that setting myself the goal of trying to get my finances under control was a bit of a large goal. 

But anyway, my favourite things about this month! 

I’ve been so proud of my little blog this month, I’ve done so well with posting and I think even my photography for my blog has improved - I’m by no mean the best but I’ve never been more proud of what I’ve created. 

I started using Arbonne in October and then since I loved what I tried, I joined as a rep for them. Please don’t gun me down for doing it.

I’ve been loving using their products and finding out more about skincare and just in general veganism and cruelty free products. It’s good to learn about what goes into most products and what’s good and what’s definitely not good. 

Taking time for myself. Since I spend so much time working and in general just being an emotional mess, I took the rest of the month to pamper and take more time for my mental health. Health is the single most important thing you have and if your physical health or mental health slips then I feel that everything else is a struggle from there. 

It’s getting chilly outside which means bringing out the cosy pyjamas and burning candles and in general just getting awfully autumnal and cosy. Christmas hot drinks are coming out soon in costa and this gives me so much joy - I’m already finding myself readdicted to White Hot Chocolate - it’s actual heaven in a cup and I’m so happy it’s officially back. 

The final thing I’m so greatful for is my dog and David. Odd things to be greatful for, but to be honest with my mental and physical health being so piss poor recently I’ve been so happy that they’ve both been there to support me. 

Yes my dog is supporting me, she cuddles me and give me kisses - god bless her and her fluffy little head. 

Primark Mrs Potts and Chip

I don't know about you but I feel that when these were released people went batty for them, when Chip was first released the store I went to the day of the release sold out in under 20 minutes!!!! Thats insane! But to be honest it doesn't surprise me that much, hes much cuter than the Disney stores offering and much cheaper too at only £5. 
When Mrs Potts came out I was more prepared to get in early - actually going in near enough daily until they could tell me the release day - I'm not even sorry. 
The day of the release they did have a fair few left but again it was only like 10am so they'd almost sold out and they'd only been open for an hour... Disney mania has definitely hit Primark and people are going wild for it. 
Gotta give it to David though - for both Mrs Potts and Chip hes spotted them for me - without him I'd have left empty handed. 
The set are insanely cute - I don't think I'll ever use these as a mug and a tea pot cause lets be honest these are complete collectors items and for decoration. 
Primark are killing it at the moment - and I cant wait to see what they bring out next. Next Beauty and the Beast item I'd like to get is the Cogsworth clock from the Disney Store but hes pretty expensive so I'll have to save for him. 
Have you managed to get your hands on these yet? What do you think of all the Disney items in Primark?
